Hagen Visit 2

The Hagen's go to this park quite often, but we had to start with the basics, of course. We started out at the wench park...just a small pond of water with a pulley system. Jamin body-surfed first and then decided to upgrade from there.

Jesse decided to give body surfing a try, and really like it at first.....then....well....let's just say he gave up trying!




Jesse bodysurfing

Ol' Rob giving wakeboarding a try. Needless to say, he busted it pretty good on one of these tries, and we think he might have broken a rib. He's stubborn and won't go to the dr, but it's getting alittle less sore.

Steve Hagen helping Zach get started....the Hagen kids are really good at this.

Jesse just stuck to playing mud in the pond instead of trying the body surfing again.

After the guys conquered the wench park, then we walked over the wakeboarding pool....and this is what we watched....

No problems, right? We can do that!!! Or at least we tried, minus the jumps and ramps...here is a pic of Jamin with his kneeboard.

Jamin did really well with this....took a few wipe outs, but had a blast!

Jamin decided to upgrade to the wakeboard, but had trouble staying up on it...

Though Rob's side was killing him, it was killing him more to watch his son out on the wakeboards, and he just sit there and watch. He had to try at least one more time. He had a blast, and because I'm a lame brain and got to talking to Jen, I have no footage of his successful attempt at real wakeboarding. Sorry Rob! You do look professional with your board tho!

You want me to do what? You gotta be crazy if you want me to go out there!!!

Kid sized wakeboard

After our 2nd day at the wakeboarding place, the Hagen's took us to a wonderfully hidden hot springs place. There were different levels of pools, and it was so nice to just sit in a big hot bathtub of sorts! It was raining (kinda chilled rain) on us at the same time. I didn't get any pics of the actual hotsprings because I was in them!!! But got a few pics of the water running out of the mountains...this water was frigid!!! The kids kept filling up their water bottles with this water and pouring it on our heads while were we in the springs. brrrrrr!
